What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by protoconf/protoconf in .agents/skills/gsd-onboard/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

<runtime_note> Copilot (VS Code): Use vscode_askquestions wherever this workflow calls AskUserQuestion. They are equivalent — vscode_askquestions is the VS Code Copilot implementation of the same interactive question API. </runtime_note>

Creates or confirms:

  • .planning/codebase/ — evidence-backed codebase map from /gsd-map-codebase
  • .planning/PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md, STATE.md — project setup from /gsd-new-project or /gsd-ingest-docs
  • .planning/onboarding/SUMMARY.md — lightweight index of what was learned and the next command

Non-goals: This command does not execute phases, ship work, or overwrite existing planning artifacts without an explicit gate.

<execution_context> @.agents/gsd-core/workflows/onboard.md @.agents/gsd-core/references/ui-brand.md @.agents/gsd-core/references/gate-prompts.md </execution_context>

Flags:

  • --fast — prefer /gsd-map-codebase --fast for the mapping handoff; the complete map is still required before /gsd-new-project.
  • --text — use plain-text numbered lists instead of TUI menus.
